The food was delicious. We ordered one portion and were full. He served us the wrong pot at first. It was not cooked at first. Then he changed the pot for us. He also gave us 3 drinks.
For my first meal in Lijiang Ancient Town, I came to the oldest local restaurant-No. 88 Snack Bar. It is located on Wuyi Street. The door is small, but I didn't expect that there is a different world inside. The space is so big. There is a two-story Naxi courtyard. It is very comfortable to eat next to the courtyard. The old lady said that it was her own house and it has been open for 39 years. They started by selling chickpea jelly, snacks, etc., and later expanded the courtyard, and there are many local traditional Naxi food dishes. The taste of this chickpea jelly is very suitable for summer. It is smooth, sour and spicy, and a cup of sour plum soup is especially refreshing and greasy. Grandma is still live broadcasting, saying that the chickpea jelly is made by grandpa at four o'clock every day for five or six hours before it is ready and sent to the store. Great! Grandpa is also an inheritor of intangible cultural heritage. You must order the patinated tofu, and the steamed chicken is also super delicious with morels. The cured pork ribs hot pot and dry pot cured pork ribs are both delicious. The wild mushrooms are also fried, and the chef's skills are amazing. Finally, it was surprisingly cheap! Much more affordable than other restaurants in the ancient city. The four of us ordered a variety of dishes and it only cost 60 per person.
The time-honored No. 88 Snack Shop is a must-visit when you come to Lijiang. It has been open for 39 years, and the old lady is still guarding the shop! You must come early to eat the chicken bean jelly, which is the most authentic. There are also cured pork ribs, grilled fish, and black goat, which are all delicious!
Because it was dinner time when we went, the waiters were busy, but there was a girl who was smiling all the time and had a good attitude! The chicken bean jelly and steamed chicken were sold out, the tofu tasted good, and the cured pork ribs were also good! The water lily was also delicious, and it tasted slippery like okra! Not bad
Naxi fried rice, 12 yuan, fried rice is sour and spicy, very suitable for the taste. Dongba grilled fish, 48 yuan, tastes OK. I always wanted to try the watery yanghua, 25 yuan, but we couldn't eat it. Dry pot cured pork ribs, 58 yuan, tastes OK, but in comparison, I like cured pork ribs hot pot more than dry pot. After a meal, I think his restaurant is just so-so, and I don't know why the inn would recommend it. Later, Lily said, maybe his snacks are better. So Lily ordered another serving of chicken bean jelly, 5 yuan, but still couldn't eat it.
The speed and attitude are really bad. The taste is also average. Compared with other stores, I don't think it has any advantages. It is even more expensive than some stores, mainly because of its reputation. The fish is sour and spicy, and the taste is particularly strong. I ate Naxi fried rice twice, and both times were different. The chicken bean jelly itself is okay, but the seasoning ruined it.
I came across a roadside restaurant that I really like. There are many people and the environment is pretty good for a snack bar. There are many people on the first floor, but few people upstairs. I ordered several snacks that I had never eaten before and they tasted pretty good. Except that the traditional sour plum soup tasted a bit overbearing, everything else was good. The chicken bean jelly was very special, slightly spicy, but not bad. The fried bait was pretty good. The Naxi fried rice was a bit average, but the yak yogurt was delicious. The fried tofu was delicious, crispy and crunchy. The price was not expensive, only 20 or 30 yuan per person, and the service was also good.
It's a very inconspicuous little shop. I almost walked past it. I went there at around 5pm. There were a lot of people. Luckily, there was a seat. I was seated in a small corner and ordered the popular Dongba grilled fish, Lijiang baba (with egg), chickpea jelly, water lily, sour plum soup, steamed chicken, stir-fried bean sprouts, and dry pot cured pork ribs. I personally think the Dongba grilled fish tastes just so-so, and the Korean cured pork ribs are too salty. I recommend the sour plum soup, which is especially refreshing after eating greasy food. Chickpea jelly and Lijiang baba are must-orders! Of the two vegetarian dishes, I personally prefer the stir-fried bean sprouts, which tastes crispy, and the water lily, which tastes soft.
